Analyst Opinion

The Crowdfunding market in Netherlands has been experiencing significant growth in recent years.

Customer preferences:
One of the main reasons for the growth in the Crowdfunding market in Netherlands is the increasing preference of individuals and businesses to seek alternative sources of funding. Traditional financing options, such as bank loans, have become more stringent and less accessible, leading to a greater demand for Crowdfunding platforms. Additionally, individuals are increasingly interested in supporting innovative projects and startups, and Crowdfunding provides them with an opportunity to do so.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Crowdfunding market in Netherlands is the rise of equity-based Crowdfunding. This allows individuals to invest in startups and receive a share of the company in return. Equity-based Crowdfunding has gained popularity due to its potential for high returns and the opportunity to become a part of the success of a startup. This trend is driven by the growth of the startup ecosystem in Netherlands, which has attracted a significant amount of venture capital and angel investors. Another trend in the Crowdfunding market in Netherlands is the emergence of niche platforms catering to specific industries or causes. These platforms allow individuals to support projects that align with their personal interests or values. For example, there are Crowdfunding platforms focused on renewable energy projects, social enterprises, and even creative projects such as films and music albums. This trend reflects the diverse interests of the Dutch population and their willingness to support causes they believe in.

Local special circumstances:
The Netherlands has a strong culture of entrepreneurship and innovation, which has contributed to the growth of the Crowdfunding market. The country has a favorable business environment, with supportive government policies and a well-developed infrastructure for startups. This has attracted a large number of entrepreneurs and investors, creating a vibrant ecosystem for Crowdfunding.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The strong economic performance of Netherlands has also played a role in the growth of the Crowdfunding market. The country has a stable and prosperous economy, with a high level of disposable income among its population. This provides individuals with the financial means to invest in Crowdfunding projects and support innovative ideas. Additionally, the low interest rate environment in Netherlands has made traditional savings and investment options less attractive, leading individuals to seek alternative investment opportunities such as Crowdfunding. In conclusion, the Crowdfunding market in Netherlands is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing preference for alternative sources of funding, the rise of equity-based Crowdfunding, the emergence of niche platforms, the supportive business environment, and the strong macroeconomic factors. This growth is expected to continue as more individuals and businesses recognize the benefits of Crowdfunding and as the startup ecosystem in Netherlands continues to thrive.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on transaction values / revenues / assets under management and user data of relevant services and products offered within the FinTech market.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer spending, population, internet penetration, smartphone penetration, credit card penetration, and online banking penetration. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.
